So I’m in the final stages of filling out my house and making it my own. Been here 3 years now and my friends weren’t kidding when they said you don’t stop moving in 😅

 

Been throwing around the idea of replacing the doorbell ringer with a small not insanely loud speaker.

 

Now let’s just say in theory, someone wanted Dimmu Borgir - Entrance or Napalm Death - You Suffer to play when the doorbell is rung:

 

just remove the old ringer, power/ground to speaker with audio input from source? I obviously want to be able to slap the old unit back in if I get a different house.

Pretty sure an easy way would be to get a smart doorbell tied to a smart speaker. My doorbell is setup to announce who’s at the door through my HomePod. I haven’t tried it,  but I’m sure you could just pick songs from your music library as the ringer.

Ring video doorbell...

You can view who is outside and talk to them...no matter where you are.

Easy install too.

This. I added 4 more cameras to our Ring system. Very nice to see who's coming into our drive since we live in the country. Only downside is, my wife can see the stupid sh*t I do to hurt myself. Laughing

Wish I had a front door cam. Would have possibly made the podium for todays videos….  Two old ladies knocked on the door this morning. When I answered they told me about their upcoming seminar on PATIENTS and tried to hand me a pamphlet. I raised my voice , said “ I don’t have patients for this crap “ and slammed the door on them. After a few seconds I opened the door laughing pretty hard. The  fear and bewilderment on their faces turned into smiles. 🤣. Maybe I should have taken a pamphlet 🤷‍♂️
